Now that the .NET team finally has released a usable version of the event source at
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Diagnostics.Tracing.EventSource with v 1.0.16 - one that also supports the admin channel - the task is on me to get it into some of our programs. I am stuck in the installation of the manifests in a proper way (without going to a custom action, what I actually prefer to avoid). According to the sample that uses the event log, they call Wevtutil As: wevtutil im C:\ProgramData\EventSourceSamples\EventSourceTest.Samples-EventSou rceDemos-EventLog.etwManifest.man /rf:"C:\ProgramData\EventSourceSamples\EventSo urceTest.Samples-EventSourceDemos-EventLog.etwManifest.dll" /mf:"C:\ProgramData\ EventSourceSamples\EventSourceTest.Samples-EventSourceDemos-EventLog.etwManifest .dll" And I wonder how to replicate that in WIX. It is clear I need to install the 2 files (the .man and the .dll that are the event source). But how do I formulate that best with the registration? Can util:EventManifest be used here or.... do I Really need to do a custom action for that (and can someone help me make one)?
